The announcement comes amidst rumors of the organization's sale by its parent company.

Players of CLG Red announced that they have entered free agency, adding more credibility to the rumors about the organization's imminent shutdown following an ownership change. The news brings an end to the organization's presence in the space that dates back to 2015, with Mounira "⁠GooseBreeder⁠" Dobie present for almost five years as the team's longest-standing member.

The team currently sits on top of their ESL Impact North America group with a 5-0 record, solidifying their status as one of NA's best teams. They have already qualified for the playoffs of the tournament, where they will hope to clinch one of the two spots at the ESL Impact League Season 3 Finals held in Dallas, Texas.

In a comment for HLTV, GooseBreeder stated that they plan to stick together for the time being and play the ESL Impact League Season 3 Finals. She didn't rule out potential changes completely, though, saying that "depending on what comes our way may change how this roster looks in the following months. All the girls are free agents & they can do as they please but we want to give it a try together."

Given their good start to the ESL Impact season, the team understandably doesn't want to let all their good work go to waste: "We have a lot of faith in what we've built and know we can be so much more so it would be a shame to just let it die," GooseBreeder added.

While the team sticks together, they will look for an organization to represen in hopes of the three non-USA players retaining their visas. If they are unable to find the right home, both GooseBreeder and Vivienne "⁠BiBiAhn⁠" Quach have stated their openness to offers from co-ed teams, as well as other female teams.

The following five players and coach are now free agents:
